Logan Paul faced a lot of backlash after posting a video from Aokigahara, Japan in 2018. Paul and his crew filmed in the forest at the base of Mt. Fuji, dubbed the “Japanese Suicide Forest” by some, and discovered a deceased man’s body. Netizens slammed Paul for the inappropriate video, and he received a lot of flak.

When asked about what happened after the incident, Paul replied, “I’m going to reveal what happened after the incident.” “After Japan happened, I obviously found myself in a hole, rightfully so, that I had never been in before. Extremely low, mentally, and I got a call from my publicist, who also repped Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson. She’s like ‘Hey, Dwayne has asked that you remove every video and picture that you’ve done with him. Maybe in the future the relationship can be reconciled, but for now, he basically wants nothing to do with you.‘ Which I also understood. I get it. I made a grotesque error, “as reported by the media.”
